Trump lost the defamation case that actually went to trial making that exactly claim about E Jean Caroll's own use of the same language describing the result, the money he got from ABC wasn't because they were likely to lose at trial, it was because kowtowing to Trump was expected to have produce results for the corporate ownership when the Trump Administration considered licensing and other regulatory requests.
- RickJWagner 1y agoWhy then did Stephanopolous’s producer warn him several times to stop using the word rapist? The obvious answer is because Trump does not fit the definition. Using that word was a lie, a $16m lie.
- Anonbrit 1y agoThe equally obvious answer is because Trump doesn't like that word, and the producer knew that opening a crack for Trump to get his undersized mitts into is a bad idea
